VERMONT: The Catamounts enter their 10th March Madness appearance and are the three-time defending America East champion. The mid-major power's biggest asset is its defense, which has been a staple for years under head coach John Becker.

The Blue Devils are ranked 12th in the country in the latest Associated Press Top 25 Poll. Sophomore center Kyle Filipowski was named to AP's All-American second team. This is Duke's 46th NCAA Tournament.
